What I see in that video is promising, more promising than Lukaku right now. Sign him up Roman! May sound stupid that I'm judging him from a video but his finishing is brilliant, uses strength to knock defenders off balance for some of his goals too. I might watch Vitesse vs Twente tomorrow to see him play.

His stats today compared to John Obi Mikel vs Swansea. Fellaini vs Sunderland (playing as CAM): Passing stats Completed 47/59 passes (80%), 1/2 accurate crosses, 3/5 accurate long balls, 1 accurate through ball. Defensive stats 2/2 tackles completed, 0 interceptions, 1/3 effective clearances, 0 shots blocked, 0 fouls. f Offensive stats 1/2 shots on target, 1 key pass, 0 successful dribbles, dispossesed once, 1 turnover, offside once. Mikel vs Swansea (playing as CDM): Passing stats Completed 65/68 passes (96%), 0 crosses, 2/2 accurate long balls. 0 through balls. Defensive stats 2/2 tackles completed, 1 interception, 1/1 effective clearance, 1/1 shots blocked, 1 foul given away. Offensive stats 0 shots, 0 key passes, 0 successful dribbles, 0 fouls won, dispossesed once, 1 turnover, 0 offsides. Okay your probably thinking they are better compared to Mikels.... don't think that him playing that bit deeper will help though. Stats of Fellaini vs Newcastle last game of season (playing as CM): Passing stats Completed 28/37 passes (76%), 0 crosses, 2/3 accurate long balls, 0 through balls. Defensive stats 1 tackle completed, 0 interceptions, 0/1 effective clearances, 0 shots blocked, 6 fouls. Offensive stats 1/2 shots on target, 1 key pass, 0 successful dribbles, won 3 fouls, dispossesed 6 times, 0 turnovers, 1 offside. In general hes a sloppier passer compared to Mikel, doesn't make as many interceptions. Playing as a CM he gives more fouls away, is dispossesed a lot more too compared to Mikel (dispossesed 6 times vs Newcastle 13/5/12 and 3 times vs Stoke 1/5/12). Gets more shots in but still, do we really need that from our CDM when we have got 4 attacking players a head of him, sometimes 5 if Rami gets up to support the attack too? Is he really worth the 25 million as well? No I wouldn't say so.

Just because he plays in Holland and Kezman had a good record in Holland then moved here and turned out to be bullshit, doesn't mean Bony will be the same! What I've heard about him is all positive, big strong, pacey, great finisher. Only a matter of time before he comes here I think. His agent stated we were following him and with our link with Vitesse I think we'll get him. Also whats with the hate on Kalou, scored vital goals from the bench, was a decent player overall. The fact we used him as winger when he was a CF didn't help either.

How come Spain pick Mata for a diddy game? Idiots.

Wee Yann M'Vila getting banned from the NT for going to a strip club when he could of just watched porn online for free. Aw well, if hes that thick ban him forever.

Asissidi or whatever his name is or possibly Suso whoever they play on one wing.

Will we press them or sit back. Point is if we sit back and let them have the ball they will get chances to pick out the runs of Suarez, Sterling and Assidi/Suso, we must press them as high up as possible so they make mistakes. Hope Robbie thinks the same and goes for pressing them high up. I mean look what Swansea did to us with their pressing in the game last weekend and again what Swansea did at Anfield in the Capital One Cup. We do that and they're bound to concede possession and we have players more than capable of doing that and then producing magic with the ball. We have to press them, they aren't Spain or Barca but they are a good side with the ball, everyone must work hard and disrupt their rhythm and then take chances we create as we were a bit toothless in the games vs Shaktar and Swansea. We will have to keep the ball very well too as they will press us high up too.

Thank fuck hes back, sick of seeing us concede 3 or 4 a game without him.

If he can't get a work permit he'll get loaned to Holland, Italy or somewhere. Won't go to a PL club unless we get him a work permit.

He probably won't play for Chelsea until his 20s or won't play for us at all....

Ashley Cole is close to agreeing a deal to play for Paris Saint Germain next season [Le10 Sport]. #CFC

Not going to be easy, especially if Liverpool play as well as they have. Their results don't justify their performances in some games. Tight man expect a 1-0, or 2-1 tbh. Torres might score tbh. Doubt it though haha.

That is a sensational hit.

Think we could do with a striker of his pedigree and experience. Played in plenty of big games, scores plenty of goals in the big games. Clinical as you can get tbh.

Hope thats true but Metro are quite unreliable. I'd hope we'd get him cheap for our unofficial link with Vitesse tooo...

Need to press them as high as we can, give them possession they will get beyond our invisible back 4, or thats how its been in recent games.

He had a shit game, Srna tore him a new arsehole, no denying it. Hes not a bad player though, plus hes played 3 European games or something. Needs experience.

The current side is in a transitional phase. You cannot speed up change, Guardiola would have problems too with our team as they are just adjusting as would Mourinho. Basically whoever manages us for the next 2,3 or even 4 years be it Robbie or whoever else will know its going to be a phase were they the teams adjusting to the philosophy that's being instilled in the club. AVB was right with what he said when he was just appointed, the team is a long term project, it will take time.

When Mata first signed he didn't have a beard, it took him like 3 months to grow that bushy bastard of a beard. I'm willing to wait 3 months...

The difference was big Fraser Forster in the net for Celtic and Victor Wanyama in midfield, pure animal.

Never mind what the board see, I see another pointless thread tbh. Just discuss the things about Torres and Sturridge in their own thread...

VICTOR MOSES!!!!! BEAST

GIVE THE BOY AN OSCAR FOR THAT GOAL.

Oscar you sexy sexy man, what a cross for Torres after flicking the ball over that wankers head haha! NO HOMO BTW

1 and a half minutes in and Luiz has already misplaced a basic pass my granny would wake to Ryan Bertrand... oh deary
